Explanation:
In Windows Server 2008, you can use fine-grained password policies to specify multiple password policies and
apply different password restrictions and account lockout policies to different sets of users within a single
domain. For example, to increase the security of privileged accounts, you can apply stricter settings to the
privileged accounts and then apply less strict settings to the accounts of other users. Or in some cases, you
may want to apply a special password policy for accounts whose passwords are synchronized with other data
sources.
This is found in the Active Directory Administrative Center. You can use Active Directory Administrative Center
to perform the following Active Directory administrative tasks:
Create new user accounts or manage existing user accounts
Create new groups or manage existing groups
Create new computer accounts or manage existing computer accounts
Create new organizational units (OUs) and containers or manage existing OUs
Connect to one or several domains or domain controllers in the same instance of Active Directory
Administrative Center, and view or manage the directory information for those domains or domain
controllers
Filter Active Directory data by using query-building search
